02/22/88 set_cc Syntax as a command: set_cc fileNN {-control_arg} Function: sets the carriage control transformation for a specified FORTRAN formatted file either on or off. Arguments: fileNN is the name of a FORTRAN file in the range of file01 to file99. If fileNN is out of range, an error message is printed. Control arguments: -off turns the carriage control transformation off for the specified FORTRAN file. -on turns the carriage control transformation on for the specified FORTRAN file. The "+" control character is ignored when the file is attached to the terminal unless the "-defer" control argument is specified. -defer defers printing of fortran output permitting all carriage control transformations even when the file is attached to a terminal. (See the description of the "+" control character in the NOTES section). Notes: When the transformation is on, the first character of each line written to the file is changed to a control character in accordance with the following table: Character Resulting Control Character --------- --------------------------- 0 Newline 012 (double space) 1 Newpage 014 (page eject) blank None (single space) + The previous and current lines are written as a single line split by a carriage return character, which causes the second line to overprint the first. This control character is treated like a blank (single space) when the file is attached to the terminal unless the "-defer" control argument was specified. When the transformation is off, the first character is not changed. The default is off for all files except for file06 and file42, for which the default is on. ----------------------------------------------------------- Historical Background This edition of the Multics software materials and documentation is provided and donated to Massachusetts Institute of Technology by Group BULL including BULL HN Information Systems Inc. as a contribution to computer science knowledge. This donation is made also to give evidence of the common contributions of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, General Electric, Honeywell Information Systems Inc., Honeywell BULL Inc., Groupe BULL and BULL HN Information Systems Inc. to the development of this operating system. Multics development was initiated by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC (1963-1970), renamed the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence in the mid 1970s, under the leadership of Professor Fernando Jose Corbato. Users consider that Multics provided the best software architecture for managing computer hardware properly and for executing programs. Many subsequent operating systems incorporated Multics principles. Multics was distributed in 1975 to 2000 by Group Bull in Europe , and in the U.S. by Bull HN Information Systems Inc., as successor in interest by change in name only to Honeywell Bull Inc. and Honeywell Information Systems Inc. . ----------------------------------------------------------- Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these programs and their documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted,provided that the below copyright notice and historical background appear in all copies and that both the copyright notice and historical background and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the names of MIT, HIS, BULL or BULL HN not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the programs without specific prior written permission.
